Jim,
Didn't read the Bass new rules. But you post that the ban exsists only in the practice period, then contradict this by typing you see nothing that prohibits this.
Did you inadvertantly add a word to your post? |

| Sorry...I meant to say during the "closed" period... Revision here:
Did I miss something? After reading the rules on the BASS site, I see nothing that prohibits the Pro's from sharing information with each other once the official practice period has started. The information ban only applies to the CLOSED practice period, much like we deal with in the PWT Championship. Although bass are different than walleyes, and may be easier to pattern and catch, wouldn't this rule actually encourage networking among the Pro's? Jim Carroll NPAA#588 |

| Eliminate or shorten pre-fish and I would speculate that you were reinforce a pro's need for networking. Networking can, but may not be, an equalizer against those who are fishing home waters with a built in network of family and friends. As I have stated on other posts, I think dropping good fisherman on new waters, with equal pre-fish time is an neat idea, but the reality is that the seasoned pros all have a built in advantage in that many have fished popular tournament waters numerous times. It might be that those breaking into the tourney game need networks to get up to speed and be competitive. Unless we come up with a whole lot of acceptable new water (housing, local approval, organizational capabilities, etc) the same waters will generate the most activities and the cycle will continue.
Take care,
Jim O
